No release since over a year

Is there any reason that the last xdvik release was more than one year 
ago now?

Well, workload from day job, family ... There are a few bugs that
should be fixed before the next release - to be quite honest, we
could use a few more people working on it

'valgrind' reports that 'revents' fields is not
initialized in events.c (do_sigpoll).
My suggestion is to clear allocated memory.
(poll() may have to clear the field.
But my Linux 2.4.31 doesn't do so.)

Summary: 'oldmaxchar' doesn't have enough bits

Initial Comment:
In xdvi.h 'maxchar' is defined as wide_ubyte.
In dvi-draw.c some 'oldmaxchar' are defined as ubyte.
In some circumstances, 'oldmaxchar' has not enough bits
to save whole 'maxchar'.
It seems cause some trouble specially for VF which has
many characters.
